• 1:32
  Speaker 3: Them well to be perfectly honest go ahead i mean
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: would you.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: I, these two people employ me. I would love to
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: spend a.
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: Lot of time with these two guys.
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: That was Russell who played that sound effect by the way.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: They don't really employ me.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: I mean, I guess they don't, but they don't. I know. Yeah.
• 1:54
  Speaker 2: And you've got that, that bleep you money. You could
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: just leave whenever you want.
• 1:58
  Speaker 4: Dude, I've got so much money. I just don't even know. I,
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: I could have gone to law school, but instead I,
• 2:07
  Speaker 4: I partied and did journalism.
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: Partying's fun.
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: Made a fraction of what lawyers do. And now a
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: lot of people come to me and they think.
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: I'm a lawyer. Do they?
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: They treat you like a lawyer?
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: I lie. Is the state bar listening?
• 2:25
  Speaker 4: No, I'm just kidding. But of course I lie. I say,
• 2:30
  Speaker 4: I don't really answer that question, right? But I could
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: be rich right now and then... I could just do
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: this show with you and then just go back home.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: And do nothing else.
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: Have a bagel and lox. Yeah.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: Oh, that'd be nice. That'd be nice. A nice bagel
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: with some lox.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: The lox and cream cheese. Oh, yeah.
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: That's great. But no, to go back to your original question,
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: I would love to hang out with Paul and Ben
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: anytime that they want me to.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: It'd be great.
• 2:55
  Speaker 4: Well, Paul calls me all the time. He texts me
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: and I never respond. I just don't answer. Really?
• 3:01
  Speaker 3: No, I just don't answer.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: You know, that's that's a convenience of power. I'm not
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: saying you're doing it for that reason.
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: But I am.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: OK, people who have power don't have to. I dealt
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: with someone recently and I'm not in a power position
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: compared to them. And like I didn't respond to, I think,
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: a phone call. And my phone blew up like three
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: more calls happened. And then I'll send an email to
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: the same person. And like a week will go by nothing.
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: And I just thought that was funny. And I said
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: something to my wife. I'm like, there's nothing I can
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: do about this. If I make a phone call to
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: somebody who has more power than me and they don't
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: return it.
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: Oh, well.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: And, you know, the opposite. I have to answer the phone.
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: You know, it was weird yesterday. Somebody that I know.
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: texted me in the morning and I was busy. I
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: was busy yesterday after the show, actually, you know, do
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: the show. And my, my day starts out a little
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: later than it used to. And which is fine. I
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: love hanging out with you, but, but I, he texted
• 3:58
  Speaker 4: me in the morning and then he texted me about
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: four o'clock and it was like, well, so I guess
• 4:02
  Speaker 4: you're like mad at me or ignoring me. I was like, dude,
• 4:06
  Speaker 4: like you literally just texted me. Like I could see
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: if it had been a month had gone by. You
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: might take a hint.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 4:14
  Speaker 4: You've texted me nine times, one text. And the next
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: text was, I'm going to kill myself.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: No, I guess I shouldn't joke about that.
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: I got you. I got you, though.
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: I joke about things that you're really not supposed to
• 4:26
  Speaker 3: joke about.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: Well, I'll say this in response to the context of
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: what you're saying is there are a lot of people
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: now who seem obsessed with the idea that we all
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: carry a phone around. So if you don't respond within
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: a few minutes, they're like, well, I know. If you
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: don't respond within a few minutes, they assume that that means...
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: that somebody is like angry but the truth is you
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: can be very busy still and have a phone and
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: like people don't want to accept that anymore.
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: My wife is the worst at it she will text
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: me and if i don't answer in like nine seconds
• 4:57
  Speaker 4: she will say hello yeah like that'll be the text hello.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: Like hello what's going yeah i i get those same texts.
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: Why are you ignoring me it's like really.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: Right What did I do wrong today? And then they
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: start yelling at you, and then by the time you
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: get home, you're like, how am I in a fight
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: I didn't even want to have? I don't want to
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: have any part of this fight.
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: Part of the reason I could talk about my wife
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: is because she doesn't listen to this show.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: Mine occasionally does. Mine does. Yeah, but it's fine.
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: So what's happening this morning?
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: There's a lot. There's a lot going on this morning.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: It seems like early voting is going pretty well here
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: in Texas. And I do— go ahead.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: Pretty big Democratic numbers in general.
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: Yeah. I think the statewide numbers for Democratic except Democratic
• 5:45
  Speaker 4: intensity is up about 10 percent from Republican voting. I
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: will say in Harris County on the first day, there
• 5:51
  Speaker 4: was some evidence that the African-American boxes aren't turning out
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: as well.
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: But I don't know.
• 5:57
  Speaker 4: I haven't looked this morning because I literally woke up.
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: And by the way, I look so much nicer than you.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: Are you just talking about the quality of our cameras?
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: No, no, no, no.
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: Just in general.
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: I don't mean just the location and the class of
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: my operation.
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: The attire.
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: The attire. I meant the attire. I meant the whole vibe.
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: It's like, you're like still think radio is just on radio.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: Why?
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: What's wrong with my outfit? Because I got the t-shirt?
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: Well, it's a collar. And I saw Chris X the
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: other day. I mean, you know, I don't listen.
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: To him, but he yeah, but his feed was popped up.
• 6:36
  Speaker 4: I saw it popped up on my feed and I
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: tried to ignore him. And I was going, Chris, wear
• 6:41
  Speaker 4: a wear a jacket, wear a suit. All you radio guys.
• 6:46
  Speaker 4: I was like that when I was first in radio.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean, to be honest, I don't think that
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: a lot of the streamers that have the millions of
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: listeners wear the suits anymore, either. I think it's more
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: commonplace now to dress like– at least I'm wearing like
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: a shirt with a collar. I almost picked a T-shirt again.
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: You know, I'm getting old and I– not getting old.
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: I keep on saying getting old because it makes me
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: feel better. My staff always says you are old, right?
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: But they're very nice. Yeah.
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: You know, you ever reach a point where there's things
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: you can't do? Like, I can't do a lot of
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: technology stuff.
• 7:22
  Speaker 3: You can do it. I can't do it. I can't
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: do all that.
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: I mean, I got ordered an Uber this morning because
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: I wrecked my car, you remember, in Austin.
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: I still have not gotten my car back. Oh, wow.
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: My car.
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: I bought a Mercedes in it because I'm so rich, right?
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: And they're having to get parts from Germany.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: For my car.
• 7:47
  Speaker 4: And I'm going like, is there no, there's like Mercedes
• 7:50
  Speaker 4: dealerships all over the place. Now, doesn't anyone have like
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: a supply shop or a garage? Yeah.
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: That's what they say about buying American man is that
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: the parts are all easier to obtain. You got to mail.
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: So I was paying for a car.
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: So I ordered an Uber and then it was going
• 8:08
  Speaker 4: to take like 25 minutes to get to my house
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: in the Heights. And, I was trying to cancel it
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: and I literally did not know how to cancel the.
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: Uber on the app.
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: And, and it, I was, I finally figured it out,
• 8:25
  Speaker 4: but it, But I was thinking to myself, you are
• 8:28
  Speaker 4: so old.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: Let me ask you something about that, man, because I'm 40,
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: and I think that at some point in my life
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: there will be stuff I don't know how to do,
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: but I pride myself on, at least with technology being
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: fairly up-to-date on it, all the AI stuff. Does that
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: go away? Because I think right now, if you asked
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: me today, will I ever not be able to do it,
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: my answer would be no. I'll stay up-to-date on it forever.
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: But maybe as I get older, I'll care less.
• 8:54
  Speaker 4: But I was never a technology guy. I never, I mean,
• 8:57
  Speaker 4: when I worked in radio, I knew how to push
• 8:59
  Speaker 4: the button. I pushed the little red button.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: And I was fine.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: Turn the mic on.
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: In television, I didn't operate the camera. I didn't carry
• 9:08
  Speaker 4: the tripod. I was, I was, you know, I was
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: the guy that just said, just cue me when you
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: want me to start talking and I will, I will
• 9:16
  Speaker 4: start talking. And I, so I, I don't know, but
• 9:21
  Speaker 4: like when you're my age, In 100 years.
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: What will be the new thing? Because what's after AI?
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't think anything, by the way.
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: I heard Elon Musk talking about AI again. I think
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: it was with Joe Rogan.
• 9:35
  Speaker 3: This is it.
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: And yeah, the AI is advancing so quickly. Well, they
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: were both being fairly candid, Elon specifically, about how many
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: jobs AI inevitably will take. And I did like something
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: Elon said. AI is never going to cook you a steak.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: Like there's always going to be a person cooking you
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: a steak somewhere. Somebody is always going to be fixing
• 9:53
  Speaker 2: your plumbing like those jobs are and jobs that people
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: don't want right now that are more open than they
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: should be. um and kids are going to college that
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: they don't need and not going to those gigs like
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: those gigs will probably be the best jobs in the
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: country in the near future because anything that's technology-based that's
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: you sitting at a computer doing some kind of like
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: email response thing ai can do.
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: That job won't you always need lawyers.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: I think you probably do, but I think you can
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: get AI lawyers. I think there's a big legal thing
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: that just got published the other day where AI can
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: now not only study law, it can argue a legal case.
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: Boy, I don't know.
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: I don't know about that. Yeah, I don't know. I
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: would assume public defenders will all eventually be AI.
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: Well, I guess the bigger question is, will the AI
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: lawyers give campaign contributions?
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: That's true. If they don't give campaign contributions, they're going
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: to lose.
• 10:50
  Speaker 2: Well, I think we just like people. I was driving
• 10:53
  Speaker 2: into work today thinking about how sad it would be
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: if there were less people working, because I like people.
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: He does not like people. All right, quick break. He
• 11:03
  Speaker 2: is Wayne Dolcefino. I am Craig Colonnade. This is The
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: Voice of Texas, KSCV Radio, 700 AM. KSCV Radio. This
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: is The Voice of Texas. He is Wayne Dolcefino. I
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: am Craig Colonnade. We are thrilled to be your mob
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: guys on the show. At 7.30, I think we're talking
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: to Maga Mays Middleton, who I'm looking forward to. Yep,
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: a good guy running a close race. I was just
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: telling you off-air the 25 million fraud whistleblower incentive details.
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: This is the program that Trump announced yesterday. If you're somebody,
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: I should turn Wayne's volume up. If you're somebody that
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: gives a tip to the federal government that leads to
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: them discovering fraud, you can get at least $ 30, 000 and
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: up to 1% of the fraudulent amount of money that
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: they recover. Nick Shirley is already someone that people are
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: talking about who could be a multimillionaire if they kick
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: this number up even higher.
• 11:58
  Speaker 4: Well, $ 25 million is not that much, though. That'll go
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: pretty quick.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: Fair enough.
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: Can we backdate it? Because I've done an awful lot
• 12:06
  Speaker 4: of fraud reporting. Can we do like a retroactive?
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: Sure. We should try. We should send one in for you.
• 12:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I had a number of texts yesterday from people saying,
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: you should get in on this.
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: And I said, I think so.
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: And when my people struggle in at 920, when they're
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: supposed to be here at 9, I'm going to tell them,
• 12:28
  Speaker 4: What are we working on that we can immediately file
• 12:32
  Speaker 4: for some money.
• 12:33
  Speaker 3: So I can go sip a margarita on the beach? Yeah.
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: I think it's really interesting. I know, again, that it's
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: a limited amount of money and it's probably more of
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: a soundbite than a thing that a lot of people.
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: It's a racket.
• 12:48
  Speaker 4: It's like a marketing thing, dude. I got to tell you,
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: can I just... In the last month, I think I've
• 12:56
  Speaker 4: heard Donald Trump offer so many, like, game show prizes.
• 13:03
  Speaker 3: Like, come on down.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the five grand that was getting offered for a bet.
• 13:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it was five grand. It was two grand. I mean,
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: have they done the Trump accounts? They said they did
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: for the kids.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, the Trump accounts for the kids is real.
• 13:16
  Speaker 4: Are they going to start? Are kids going to start
• 13:18
  Speaker 4: showing up saying, I don't know, I'm four year old, whatever.
• 13:22
  Speaker 4: And yeah, and Donald Trump cheated me. Is that going
• 13:25
  Speaker 4: to be the new Democratic guy?
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: It could be. You know, Elon Musk also said every
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: child born, I think, starting next year gets one SpaceX
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: share just for free. Really? Yeah. He said that he's
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: going to give away millions of SpaceX. I don't know
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: if it's going to be tied to the Trump accounts
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: program or some other thing.
• 13:41
  Speaker 4: So I have a message for Elon. I don't have
• 13:43
  Speaker 4: a lot of money. I really don't. And you might
• 13:46
  Speaker 4: know my office is very classy, but I don't have
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: a lot of money. But I do have some SpaceX,
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: and I'm down 32% since I bought.
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: My SpaceX stock.
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: That's never good.
• 13:58
  Speaker 4: So Elon, worry about me. Don't worry about the kids
• 14:02
  Speaker 4: that are not even thought of yet.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: It had to have a tick up after the Tesla
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: thing because that was involving SpaceX.
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: Tick up? Okay. All right. It's not been a good
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: time for me.
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: No, it's not good.
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: I have the worst financial person you will ever meet.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: Really?
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: That surprises me, actually.
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: I literally am. I always buy houses high and sell
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: them low. I've lost money on most everything. The last
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: house I had in Katy, I was going to make money.
• 14:33
  Speaker 4: And then when they did the inspection, they discovered mold
• 14:37
  Speaker 4: in my daughter's bathroom upstairs.
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: Oh, wow.
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: Cleaned up a spill and it cost me, you know,
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: once they discover mold in your house and I'm actually
• 14:46
  Speaker 4: doing a story on mold today for my, my, my
• 14:50
  Speaker 4: company is, we do a lot of investigations into moldy
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: houses because a lot of the home builders build crappy houses. No,
• 14:58
  Speaker 4: no offense to the home builders. I guess I'm not
• 15:00
  Speaker 4: getting hired to do a home builders commercial, but, but that,
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: but there's a lot of mold stuff, but they discovered
• 15:06
  Speaker 4: this mold cost me $ 13, 000 to fix it. Because once
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: they discover it, the inspector discovers it. Not that I
• 15:14
  Speaker 4: was trying to hide it.
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: I didn't know.
• 15:16
  Speaker 4: But once they discover it, then they control the whole process.
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: And literally they ripped out walls in rooms, three rooms down. Wow.
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: I'm going, what?
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: I thought the mold was here, but they're just trying
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: to make sure. And that's what drives up the car.
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: It is a racket.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: It is a racket. I've only sold one home in
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: my life, and we just did that a couple years ago.
• 15:42
  Speaker 2: And we did actually make money, but it was like
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: a tricky process, to say the very least. And there
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: was one person that said she didn't trust our foundation.
• 15:50
  Speaker 2: So she asked for permission to rip out like four
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: of our walls. And I said no to that. I'm like,
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: let's just find a different buyer because at least it
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: wasn't that they discovered something they had to do it.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: Because I also think like the construction guy that gets
• 16:03
  Speaker 2: hired for that, he doesn't care. He's going to do
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: whatever he can to make as much money once he's
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: locked into it.
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: Look, it's America. I get it. But it's it's look,
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: everything is a racket.
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: I've said this before as a as a conservative who
• 16:18
  Speaker 4: wants everyone to make a lot of money, especially me.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: Um, mostly you.
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Mostly me. I, I do think greed is one
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: of our big problems, right? There's a, everyone is just
• 16:31
  Speaker 4: greedy and there's a, and you get in the government stuff,
• 16:35
  Speaker 4: the amount of money they add on the contracts and,
• 16:39
  Speaker 4: and just the gravy and the nonsense and helping your
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: buddy stuff is always been something that just really offended me.
• 16:48
  Speaker 4: I just think public sector is, should not be the
• 16:51
  Speaker 4: income producing sector. It should be the, we do what
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: we have to do and that's it.
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: Nothing more.
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: Well, they should act like a broke company all the
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: time and they act like a very wealthy company all
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: the time. Like the government should act like they have
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: almost no money constantly and do everything as cheap as possible.
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: They don't. Look, if I could go to the bank, right?
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: And I could, I was talking to the banker yesterday.
• 17:16
  Speaker 4: And if I go to the bank and just say, look,
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: I know I have, Minus $.
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: 4, 000 in my account.
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: But I want two more.
• 17:25
  Speaker 3: I want not two more, 10 more. And they go, sure, Wayne.
• 17:30
  Speaker 2: No problem.
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: That's what he'd say. No problem.
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: And look, I'm not going to pay this back. And
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: in six months or maybe three months, I'm going to
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: come back to you and say, I need another five more.
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: And I haven't paid back either the two or the 10.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: And that's America. That's our government. It is.
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: That is how our government spends money. And the funny
• 17:50
  Speaker 2: thing is, I know that when I said that they
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: should do it as cheaply as possible, that a whole
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: bunch of people like they already do that. They just
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: don't claim to do that. They charge for the more
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: expensive thing and they do the cheapest one possible. I
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: think we just need to actually transparently say we're just
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: spending money on this and nobody gets a freebie. And
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: by the way, when you when you talk about greed,
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: at least greed in the world of of private enterprise
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: is it makes sense. Like it's you're trying to build
• 18:16
  Speaker 2: your company up. You're not doing you're not you didn't
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: start your company to lift up your neighborhood. You started
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: your company to lift up you. You know what I mean?
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: You were good at a thing. Not you specifically, but.
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: I'm really into charity.
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: But anybody out there who starts a company like they
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: didn't do it. to help everybody around them. Yesterday, actually,
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: this is kind of weird. I'm going to tell this
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: story real quick and then we'll take a break. Yesterday,
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: there was this woman standing on the side of the road,
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: like waving cars over. And she had a car that
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: was stopped and it was blinking. And I thought she
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: needed a jump. So I actually did pull over and
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: I hopped out of the car and I walked up
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: to her. She goes, hey, I need some money for gas.
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: And I was like, oh, I didn't I didn't give
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: her any. I was like, I don't have any on me.
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: I thought you needed a jump. And I got back
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: in my car and I drove away and I felt
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: a little bad about that. But to be honest, it
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: kind of seemed like a like a scam.
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: Remind me to tell you a story after the after
• 19:11
  Speaker 4: we do our interviews in the break.
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: Sure.
• 19:13
  Speaker 4: About an investigation I did involving that very sort of thing.
• 19:18
  Speaker 4: It's actually kind of interesting.
• 19:20
  Speaker 3: And so are we going to talk to someone?
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: We were supposed to talk to Mays Middleton, but I
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: guess he is not going to be available today. I
• 19:26
  Speaker 2: just got an email that says that we're going to
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: have to reschedule that.
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: You just told me.
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: I literally just announced it. I know I did because
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: it was coming up in two minutes. And then I
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: just got an email right now at 727 saying that
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: there's something going on and it's not going to be today.
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: But it's going to be soon.
• 19:41
  Speaker 4: All right, so let's do this. Why don't we talk
• 19:44
  Speaker 4: about the idea of running an ad with someone's mother
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: dissing her daughter. And then it turns out that the
• 19:56
  Speaker 4: mother's husband or boyfriend raped the candidate. I think that
• 20:03
  Speaker 4: is going to go down as one of the great
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: campaign decisions ever.
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Of the year.
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: It seems to be a very bad decision, to say
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: the very least. We will talk about it in detail.
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: He's talking about a commercial that involves Vivek Ramaswamy's campaign.
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: In just a bit, KSEV Radio, AM 700, The Voice
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: of Texas. KSEV Radio. He's Wayne Del Trofino. I am
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: Craig Colonese. We are the mob guys on The Voice
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: of Texas, 700 AM. Thrilled to be with you. I
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: thought the signal was getting better today, and then I
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: was listening to the other station out of Cincinnati on
• 20:36
  Speaker 2: the drive-in. Which is a little sad, but I know
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: that the legal reasons that's got to happen. You were
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: talking about just before the break, a decision that's being
• 20:45
  Speaker 2: made by the Ramaswamy campaign to run an ad that
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: they spent a lot of money on. That seems to
• 20:52
  Speaker 2: be the type of ad that you should just just bury,
• 20:55
  Speaker 2: just not actually do it. What do you want to say?
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: Contextualize this story.
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: So I can put this in terms of the context
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: of what I do, right? Like people come to us
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: and hire us to investigate something that they say is
• 21:09
  Speaker 4: really wrong. So could you imagine if the mom came
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: to us and said, Hey, I want you to investigate
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: my daughter who is running, uh, against running for governor, right?
• 21:23
  Speaker 4: And against this Vivek Ramaswamy guy, right? Um, and you
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: interview her, and she says, you know, my daughter is
• 21:34
  Speaker 4: a total liar, blah, blah, blah. She falsely claimed my
• 21:40
  Speaker 4: husband touched her, and, you know, I do a lot
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: of family law stuff, so I understand these kind of stories, right?
• 21:47
  Speaker 4: And you say, okay, and you get hired, and then
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: you start looking into it, and it turns out That
• 21:54
  Speaker 4: not only the daughter claims the guy did it, but
• 21:57
  Speaker 4: the brother claims the guy did it. The guy was
• 22:00
  Speaker 4: like indicted or charged or whatever and fled the state.
• 22:04
  Speaker 4: And mom went with him. I would probably call her
• 22:07
  Speaker 4: back and say, we got a problem.
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we're not going to air this.
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we're just not. We can't get there.
• 22:14
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: I think that I have two thoughts on this. The
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: first one, I think, and we saw it here happen
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: in a very different way and not with rape allegations,
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: thank God, of any kind. But we saw an ad
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: that was produced that was a family member of one
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: of the two Senate candidates, you know, that was trying
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: to convince people that, hey, coming right from a voice
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: that people say got hurt in all this. I think
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: you should vote for Ken Paxton. I don't know what happened,
• 22:39
  Speaker 2: but I think there are a set of beliefs now
• 22:43
  Speaker 2: in political advertising that most of these messages are going
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: to fall in deaf ears unless you get the right
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: person to deliver it, unless you get a family member,
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: a close friend, a pastor, for example, with some of
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: the hidden camera stuff we've seen with Tallarico, that those
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: messages are going to be received better because people just
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: distrust so much other stuff right now. And I understand that. But, yeah,
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: once you dig deeper into this story and you find
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: out that the stepfather was accused of raping her at 12,
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: you decide to move on from this.
• 23:15
  Speaker 3: Even if he did. Look, even if it's like she's
• 23:17
  Speaker 3: a total liar.
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: Even even if she is a total liar. Right. The
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: stories to what I call money.
• 23:23
  Speaker 4: I always tell people, look, you know, very few things
• 23:27
  Speaker 4: are black and white in the world. I mean, sometimes
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: you can go like, you know, Nick Shirley went to
• 23:33
  Speaker 4: that place and it said Learing Center.
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: Yes. Right.
• 23:36
  Speaker 4: You got to hint that those people weren't really in
• 23:39
  Speaker 4: the daycare biz.
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 23:42
  Speaker 4: But a lot of things, and they always, you know,
• 23:45
  Speaker 4: they used to criticize alternative facts, but there are alternative
• 23:48
  Speaker 4: facts that change. And they're not alternative in that they're
• 23:54
  Speaker 4: the same fact, but they're just the other part of
• 23:56
  Speaker 4: the story.
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: Right.
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: There are two sides to stories. and since I do
• 24:01
  Speaker 4: a lot of family stuff, I understand the dynamics of
• 24:05
  Speaker 4: those back and forth. And you got to sort of
• 24:08
  Speaker 4: weed through that. I just don't understand. I could see
• 24:12
  Speaker 4: if the guy was never charged, not to be like
• 24:15
  Speaker 4: totally a jerk, but I can see if the allegation
• 24:18
  Speaker 4: was made, but the guy was never like charged or
• 24:21
  Speaker 4: didn't flee or, or fought it in court or something.
• 24:24
  Speaker 4: And maybe he did it. Maybe he didn't do it.
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: Maybe then you could say, Let's go. Let's go low.
• 24:29
  Speaker 4: Let's take a shot. But how do you how do
• 24:33
  Speaker 4: you not do that?
• 24:34
  Speaker 3: Or maybe they did. I don't know.
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: But how do you not do the due diligence to
• 24:39
  Speaker 4: know what the other side of the story is first?
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, and I would I would ask that simple
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: question as to whose job that would be, because it
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: wouldn't be Vivek's. Vivek's not going to be the one
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: digging into the background to understand this. He's going to
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: get pitched a commercial from a campaign member and say, hey,
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: this commercial will help us in this way because it's
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: this person. And so I know it would probably be
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: Vivek's decision to pull it. But when when you find
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: this information out, but I don't know that I blame
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: him about the creation of it or even the beginning
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: existence of it. I would I would think now is
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: the right time to say this thing should go away.
• 25:13
  Speaker 4: Well, after you fire the idiot who did it.
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 25:17
  Speaker 4: The reality is, if that's true, if that's the story
• 25:20
  Speaker 4: that Vivek didn't know.
• 25:21
  Speaker 5: Right.
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: And I accept that, you know, there's things that happen
• 25:24
  Speaker 3: here that I. I do.
• 25:26
  Speaker 4: I find out about after the fact that I know
• 25:28
  Speaker 4: really guys, I mean, I get it, but, but that's
• 25:31
  Speaker 4: a major, that's like a major, but I always tell
• 25:34
  Speaker 4: my people one thing. I don't, I don't care if
• 25:38
  Speaker 4: people hate on me all day. If they call me
• 25:41
  Speaker 4: every name in the book, what I don't like is
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: when someone can say, you said X.
• 25:47
  Speaker 3: And it's actually Y.
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: I don't like to be surprised like that. So, but
• 25:53
  Speaker 4: he didn't come out and, fire anybody or say i
• 25:57
  Speaker 4: can't i'm so i'm i'm disappointed that my staff did
• 26:01
  Speaker 4: this this is we shouldn't have done this.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: Well and and maybe and maybe this is the thing
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: you said maybe there's some familiarity but not enough maybe
• 26:10
  Speaker 2: they don't know that the guy actually was arrested and
• 26:12
  Speaker 2: charged and that as you said he ran like maybe
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: because i know the context of the commercial is that
• 26:17
  Speaker 2: she was a liar so i don't think you can
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: know nothing you have to know something about it but
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: I don't know. It's just what I think is really intriguing.
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: And I think this has been uniquely true since, say,
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: the Hunter Biden laptop. Because remember, when that laptop first
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: became a story, it was Rudy Giuliani that was talking
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: about it on television. And so no one believed it
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: on the left. They all dismissed it as crap. And
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: so now in order to get your message to actually
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: land on the ears that you're trying to convince to
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: change their opinion. who delivers the messages become really important.
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: And this is a swing and a miss and a,
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: you know, I don't even, I'm not trying to undersell it,
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: but go ahead.
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 26:56
  Speaker 4: But I mean, it is, but then, then they doubled
• 26:59
  Speaker 4: down and it wasn't going to even run on TV.
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: They were just going to float it out.
• 27:04
  Speaker 4: I don't know what the plan was, I guess, to
• 27:07
  Speaker 4: intentionally leak it because I'm not sure why you said that, that,
• 27:12
  Speaker 4: thing to a bunch of focus groups and stuff and
• 27:15
  Speaker 4: let it get out like you wouldn't keep control of that.
• 27:19
  Speaker 4: I think they wanted to see how it played. But
• 27:21
  Speaker 4: then when the reaction. And again, I'm assuming a couple
• 27:25
  Speaker 4: of things. You know what happens when you assume, right?
• 27:27
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I do.
• 27:28
  Speaker 4: I am assuming a couple of things that what it
• 27:32
  Speaker 4: appears to be is what it is. Maybe there's more
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: to it, right?
• 27:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 27:36
  Speaker 4: I mean, for all I know, who knows what her
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: brother's relationship is with her.
• 27:40
  Speaker 3: I have no idea. It's a screwed up family. I
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: don't know, right? Yeah.
• 27:45
  Speaker 4: But to double down and now say I'm going to
• 27:48
  Speaker 4: spend $ 4 million on to plaster it all over TV.
• 27:53
  Speaker 4: Despite the reaction, you either have to believe it's work.
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: Well, or you believe that it is all a lie.
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: Like maybe for whatever reason, they do believe that the
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: accusations of child abuse are, in fact, completely a lie.
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 28:11
  Speaker 4: And like to quote from my Godfather movie, that's when
• 28:16
  Speaker 4: you go to the friendly media.
• 28:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah. If it really is a lie. Right. And there's
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: more to this story.
• 28:23
  Speaker 4: And she's just one of these freaked out, crazy women
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: who was a crazy young girl.
• 28:29
  Speaker 3: People are going to be mad at me for saying this.
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: Well, no, because she was 12. And I know you're
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: not saying it. Go ahead. Continue.
• 28:34
  Speaker 4: I'm not saying it just to be an a-hole, but
• 28:37
  Speaker 4: I'm fine if somebody wants to call me that. I
• 28:40
  Speaker 4: really am because I think it's reality. I've had cases
• 28:44
  Speaker 4: where they've made it up. I've had cases where the
• 28:47
  Speaker 4: kids were making it up. I've had cases where they weren't.
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: Right. So.
• 28:51
  Speaker 4: I've seen enough of all sides of this kind of
• 28:54
  Speaker 4: stuff to say, I don't know, but using Don Corleone
• 28:58
  Speaker 4: back there, he would have said, hey, Sonny, go get
• 29:03
  Speaker 4: with our friendly media people. People like, Michael said, people
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: like the kind of story with the dirty cop. So
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: maybe that's there, too.
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: I'll say this, too. I think the age of the
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: person that's making the accusation convinces me sometimes that it's
• 29:17
  Speaker 2: unlikely to be made up. I have a family... There's
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: someone in our family that had something like this happen
• 29:24
  Speaker 2: and they were four, like four and five years old
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: was when the accusation first, you know, was was out there.
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: And there's not a lot of scenarios where you can
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: envision a four year old lying about something like that.
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: You know what I mean? Like the defense. amount of
• 29:40
  Speaker 2: information that was given testimony to cops and stuff like
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: there's enough exploration of the data. And this seems to
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: be the case in this story where, like, the guy's arrested.
• 29:49
  Speaker 2: The cops are involved. There's charges put out there that
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: a 12 year old, at least according to law enforcement,
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: seem to be a pretty reliable source of information.
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: Let me just say, again, and I'm really not trying
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: to be the guy that defends the pedophile freak show, right,
• 30:08
  Speaker 4: if that's what he is.
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: I have dealt with cases where the– if they.
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: Have siblings that siblings can convince someone that dad is
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: doing this or, or, or, or exaggerate what happened. And
• 30:23
  Speaker 4: like I said, this is a rape allegation. It's not
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: like daddy decided to go to sleep with me in
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: his underpants when he was, when I was 10, this is,
• 30:33
  Speaker 4: this is worse. But I, but I, I, I get
• 30:36
  Speaker 4: all sides of this, Craig. And I just, I just
• 30:39
  Speaker 4: don't think it's a good idea to wade into... The
• 30:41
  Speaker 4: family stuff is very complicated.
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: Once you wade into.
• 30:45
  Speaker 4: We all know that families are all screwed up, and
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: there's all kinds of weird stuff that happens, and we
• 30:52
  Speaker 4: all know this exists, and it exists in a big way.
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: So, anyway, I just... No, I don't get the play.
• 31:01
  Speaker 2: I appreciate it. And I think that's really the thing
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: we're talking about, because now we've taken 10 minutes to
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: try to dissect all the variables here. And the Ramaswamy
• 31:08
  Speaker 2: campaign could have avoided it by not not putting this
• 31:11
  Speaker 2: ad out there. Like this is one where you think
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: the reaction could be more negative than the benefit. And
• 31:19
  Speaker 2: you just skip it like you don't even skip it
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: because you're trying to hide anything. And even if you believe.
• 31:23
  Speaker 3: Go ahead. But what if you're losing, Craig? Losing bad.
• 31:27
  Speaker 3: Do you say. I'm going to go for the lion
• 31:31
  Speaker 3: 12 year old card.
• 31:32
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: I don't know.
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: Well, I'd be curious what people think out there too.
• 31:37
  Speaker 4: We could talk about other stuff. I just, I'm just
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: curious if people feel, cause look, I'd say probably 50%
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: of people get involved in divorces and there's lots of
• 31:48
  Speaker 4: people who've had custody fights and, and, and allegations of
• 31:52
  Speaker 4: sexual and physical abuse. You go to Montgomery County, man, they,
• 31:56
  Speaker 4: half the population up there used to be busted for
• 32:00
  Speaker 4: some kind of sexual abuse in that town.
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: I'm just joking. But there's a lot of people that
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: get arrested.
• 32:08
  Speaker 2: I've known a lot of friends of mine who went
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: through really rough divorces where they said that The ex
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: was making up a bunch of crazy stuff. Maybe not
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: this stuff, but like some kind of crazy stuff. And
• 32:18
  Speaker 2: I'm sure that that happens. You can call in 281-558-5738. 281-558-5738.
• 32:21
  Speaker 2: Give us your take on the Ramaswamy ad. What did
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: you want to say, Wayne?
• 32:29
  Speaker 4: No, we can also talk about Trump talking about men's
• 32:33
  Speaker 4: butts every time he has a speech.
• 32:37
  Speaker 3: What is going on?
• 32:38
  Speaker 5: I don't know.
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: What is going on?
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: Sometimes I laugh at that stuff, man, because otherwise.
• 32:42
  Speaker 3: It was funny.
• 32:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there you go. A quick break. A lot coming up.
• 32:45
  Speaker 2: KSV Radio. This is the Voice of Texas. We're the
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: mob guys on 700 AM. KSV Radio. 700 AM. The
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: Voice of Texas. You can call in and be a
• 32:56
  Speaker 2: part of the show if you want to.
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: 281-558-5738. 281-558-5738.
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: 558-5738. We were talking about Vivek Ramaswamy's ad that is
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: still out there in the world. And it was created
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: to give a voice to a estranged mother of the
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: candidate he's running against. And then you find out that
• 33:17
  Speaker 2: it's a very messy family and there's rape allegations from
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: a stepfather and there was an arrest and all kinds
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: of crazy stuff. So it seems like the kind of
• 33:27
  Speaker 2: thing that is too messy, even for the world of politics.
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: which says a lot. But both Wayne and I feel
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: that it probably just shouldn't have been out there. 281-558-5738
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: if you want to react. To that, go ahead.
• 33:41
  Speaker 4: I didn't really say it shouldn't be out there. I just....
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe it's the kind of thing that they should
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: bury now, right?
• 33:48
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't get why they're buying. They're doubling down
• 33:51
  Speaker 4: on it, which is just a weird thing.
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, even if they created it in an honest way,
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: from an honest place, and didn't know all the variables
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: of this story, and even still, if they do know
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: the variables and don't believe them, it does, as I said,
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: it just seems too messy, even for the world of politics.
• 34:07
  Speaker 4: I have decided... that I'm going to start being a heckler.
• 34:10
  Speaker 4: Because what I've noticed is that if one Yahoo gets
• 34:16
  Speaker 4: up at a Republican event and starts, I don't know
• 34:21
  Speaker 4: if you saw the video, the clip of the guy
• 34:23
  Speaker 4: screaming at Vivek while he's on the stage going, yo,
• 34:26
  Speaker 4: he raped her! Like, here's some guy, some white dude, right?
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: Some crazy dude.
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: And they took him out. And it was like the
• 34:34
  Speaker 3: lead story on CNN.
• 34:36
  Speaker 4: It was like, So now anybody can get into one
• 34:40
  Speaker 4: of those events, right?
• 34:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 34:42
  Speaker 4: So you could– some totally mentally ill person can go
• 34:46
  Speaker 4: in there, scream for 15, 20 seconds, and get their
• 34:51
  Speaker 4: three minutes of fame on CNN. And I think it
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: may be– I like publicity. Yeah.
• 34:56
  Speaker 3: So I– I could see it. Sure.
• 34:59
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, it's interesting about that, too. You just
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: mentioned CNN and you mentioned like the loudest screamer in
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: the room. Wasn't there a former speaker of the House
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: here in Texas, Dade Phelan, who went on CNN and said, like,
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: he can't vote for Paxton? He's the guy that was
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: at the.
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: Top of the speaker. Yeah.
• 35:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 35:17
  Speaker 3: Phelan.
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: He was at the top of the impeachment process in 2023.
• 35:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: And CNN trots him out, and they're like, hey, look,
• 35:24
  Speaker 2: this guy who's pretending to be a conservative for a
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: few minutes, he absolutely can't vote for Paxson. That means
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: you can't do it either. Like, it's so dumb when
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: they do it that way.
• 35:35
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I will say that I view that, I view
• 35:38
  Speaker 4: the Paxson impeachment thing as a big mistake, and whether
• 35:42
  Speaker 4: or not you agreed with the allegations or not, or
• 35:44
  Speaker 4: thought it was sleazy or not, clearly wasn't criminal, obviously.
• 35:48
  Speaker 4: I think someone would have gotten in trouble for it
• 35:51
  Speaker 4: if it was, but Or maybe not. Who knows in
• 35:54
  Speaker 4: this world? But I thought if they really had serious
• 36:00
  Speaker 4: stuff against him, you go to him and say you
• 36:03
  Speaker 4: need to resign. You start calling for people's resignations. You
• 36:07
  Speaker 4: leak it to the media and the wave builds. I
• 36:11
  Speaker 4: don't know that it was great for the long-term interest
• 36:16
  Speaker 4: of the Republican Party.
• 36:17
  Speaker 3: In fact, I know it wasn't.
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: Because a couple of years after that, remember when they
• 36:21
  Speaker 4: had the last speaker, last time between Burroughs and the
• 36:24
  Speaker 4: other guy, I forget his name. The Republican Party wanted
• 36:29
  Speaker 4: one guy, and there were people that voted for Burroughs.
• 36:33
  Speaker 4: But the Democrats were voting for Burroughs, so all the
• 36:36
  Speaker 4: farther right Republicans were mad.
• 36:39
  Speaker 3: And it splintered the party. I mean, the party has
• 36:42
  Speaker 3: a hard.
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: Time governing because we are not all in the same lane.
• 36:48
  Speaker 4: We're not all doing the same thing or wanting the
• 36:51
  Speaker 4: same thing. We have very different views. There's the anti-war people.
• 36:55
  Speaker 4: It's just tough to keep the coalition together. And by
• 36:59
  Speaker 4: the way, bring up something else real quick. I sent
• 37:03
  Speaker 4: you this thing. It's on something called muckraker.com, right? It's
• 37:06
  Speaker 4: just one of these guys that goes around, you know,
• 37:08
  Speaker 4: and does.
• 37:09
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
• 37:10
  Speaker 4: And they go to an Abdul Al-Sayed campaign headquarters.
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: And, oh, no, this was another one. That's O'Keefe.
• 37:20
  Speaker 4: I want to talk about that one, too. But anyway,
• 37:22
  Speaker 4: they go, they discover... That in Minnesota, there's a law
• 37:26
  Speaker 4: that says a registered voter.
• 37:29
  Speaker 3: Is this true?
• 37:30
  Speaker 2: I think so. The video is outing the vouching process
• 37:35
  Speaker 2: that exists in Minnesota, which is where one registered voter
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: shows up at a polling place. and vouches for up
• 37:42
  Speaker 2: to 10 other people.
• 37:44
  Speaker 3: I think it's eight.
• 37:45
  Speaker 2: Oh, I thought it was eight. Okay, whatever it is.
• 37:47
  Speaker 5: It's eight.
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: Whatever it is.
• 37:48
  Speaker 2: It's a ridiculous number. You can vouch for people by
• 37:51
  Speaker 2: saying that they live in your community, that they're a citizen,
• 37:54
  Speaker 2: even if they have no paperwork or anything whatsoever. And
• 37:57
  Speaker 2: we'll play the video in just a little bit after
• 37:59
  Speaker 2: the news break. This guy goes in and actually says
• 38:02
  Speaker 2: that they're members of Hamas.
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: They just got here. Right.
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: And he wants them. But I think he goes as
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: far as to be like they're Hamas. They're not even
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: just people from Gaza. They're literally the terrorists from Gaza.
• 38:16
  Speaker 3: And he kept on asking, Craig. He kept on saying
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: they just got here like yesterday.
• 38:21
  Speaker 2: They just got here there.
• 38:23
  Speaker 4: I'm not going to get any trouble because they're all
• 38:25
  Speaker 4: members of a mosque.
• 38:26
  Speaker 3: Right. And the election lady says, well, it doesn't say
• 38:30
  Speaker 3: anything about that on the floor.
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: So it's like, well, that's fine. It's crazy to hear
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: him say, though, he's like, I can vouch for them.
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: And she goes, yeah, you can vouch for them. No problem.
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: And he's admitting all the reasons he can't. Even within
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: the Minnesota process itself.
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 38:48
  Speaker 4: I was thinking if that is, I'm sure it's true, right?
• 38:51
  Speaker 4: Because it was, it was hidden camera. First of all,
• 38:56
  Speaker 4: election workers are not, you know, they're not, a lot
• 38:59
  Speaker 4: of them are just regular folks just, you know, make
• 39:01
  Speaker 4: a buck doing, but, but even when like the person
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: in charge came out, they were going, well, I've done
• 39:07
  Speaker 4: something about a moss on my sheet.
• 39:09
  Speaker 3: So I guess, I guess.
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: And honestly, like the point I think of the video
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: is like this is how this works is politicians make
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: a rule that is ridiculous in and of itself, but
• 39:21
  Speaker 2: also sort of uniquely confusing sometimes intentionally. And the uniquely confusing,
• 39:26
  Speaker 2: ridiculous rule then becomes something that people can't enforce at
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: the lower level. So they let a bunch of people
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: vote that shouldn't vote, because the thing that's different about
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: the video and reality is if you were trying to
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: fake it and get a bunch of Hamas guys to vote,
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: you just wouldn't admit that they're Hamas guys. And then
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: that would go completely fine.
• 39:43
  Speaker 3: But yeah.
• 39:44
  Speaker 4: And then O'Keefe goes in and and and finds out
• 39:49
  Speaker 4: that they're taking money from overseas for science campaign and
• 39:54
  Speaker 4: goes in there and almost gets his butt kicked. Um,
• 39:57
  Speaker 4: he's one of those guys. He's like me, you know,
• 40:00
  Speaker 4: sometimes when you go into a private property and you know,
• 40:03
  Speaker 4: put the camera in, they tell you to get out.
• 40:06
  Speaker 3: So I don't hear very well.
• 40:08
  Speaker 4: So sometimes I will say, excuse me, because it's a
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: way of, giving.
• 40:13
  Speaker 3: The photographer, I should admit this.
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: No, that's awesome, dude.
• 40:16
  Speaker 4: But it does give the photographer a few extra seconds
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: or so.
• 40:20
  Speaker 2: We only have like two minutes before the break, but
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: Jimmy X has called in. I think it's Jimmy X.
• 40:24
  Speaker 2: I don't know if he wants to jump in now
• 40:26
  Speaker 2: or if he wants to hang on until after the
• 40:27
  Speaker 2: break to get more time. Jimmy, what do you want
• 40:29
  Speaker 2: to say?
• 40:30
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I've got to go before 8 o'clock. Yeah, that
• 40:33
  Speaker 5: is a 100% real video. It's a real state law
• 40:38
  Speaker 5: in Minnesota. It was done because of all the females
• 40:43
  Speaker 5: who only show their eyes half the time. And then
• 40:47
  Speaker 5: other Minnesota nice stuff. But it gets worse. Because this
• 40:52
  Speaker 5: past year, their legislature passed a law or denied an
• 40:58
  Speaker 5: ability to have dead people removed from the voting rolls.
• 41:04
  Speaker 5: The Marxist Democratic Party literally voted to keep dead people
• 41:10
  Speaker 5: on voting rolls. If that doesn't tell you the fraud
• 41:14
  Speaker 5: in Minnesota, nothing else does.
• 41:17
  Speaker 2: Well, and actually, thank you, Jimmy X, for the call.
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: That was a great call. I also read that NPR
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: in Minnesota, they have a headline that says it's the
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: safest and most secure system in the country.
• 41:27
  Speaker 4: They've never had a complaint from any of those dead people.
• 41:32
  Speaker 5: All right.
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: NPR also corrupt, but it's just great.
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: We got to take a break. We'll come back. We'll
• 41:36
  Speaker 2: talk about a lot of things, including probably this story more.
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: And we'll play that audio of the secret candid camera.
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: That's just ridiculous. After this on The Voice of Texas.
